You’re just over the first few weeks of the New Year. So, how has the "new you" been shaping up?

Most commonly, many have resolved to lose weight or exercise more. Sometimes we pledge to give up a chronic behavior that we know is not healthy, such as drinking alcohol, smoking, or over spending. The statistics vary, but no matter which reference you choose, the success rate of resolutions is dismal; ranging from approximately 8-45%. That means over half and probably closer to 90% of those who make a resolution will fail.

One of the biggest reasons for divorce in older marriages is growing apart. And one of the many reasons for growing apart is when one partner starts to evolve and change and the other doesn’t.

This is a tough one. Not gonna lie. I know from my own experience when I started a spiritual awakening in June of 2014. I didn’t plan the change nor could I stop once it started. It can create the oddest dichotomy of beautiful growth with incredible loneliness and confusion for both people in the marriage.
